As evidenced by our newest "troll" in the "Irony" thread; the libs that show up on forums all seem to think they are Jedi. They list off a plethora of talking points and just expect you to accept whatever they say, they should not have to provide proof, you should have to look up the proof.

It appears to be just as bad in the so called educated lib as well.They are no longer taught critical thinking, they are taught to be drones.

Drones yes. But I argue that libs, as they are so fond of doing, have redefined critical thinking:

[spoiler=Rant inbound]Do you know what I was 'taught' this month? I was taught in psych that:

"transexuals are those born in the wrong body, that they can be either gay OR straight, that we cannot qurestion their motives because they live in a world where everyone is always dumping on them, and that their suicide rate is so high because I fail support them enough." Of course, this was all implied through a powerpoint, a 'survey', an article, and an open disscussion.

In Soc: "The minorities of this country are far more likely to be poor (except asains, who actually fare better per capita than whites, but that wasnt discussed, just shoved into a small graph), and that by enforcing guarrented minimal income we can provide them the chance to not worry about income and educate themselves. I also learned that by 'pumping money into the economy here (points to the bottom of the recession)' we could have accelerated our economy, but'we' were prevented from this by opposiiton in the house.'

In Anthro: "Gender inclusion is important in today's studies. Humankind is an acceptable alternative to 'mankind'. In fact, it is the only correct way to define man. Here's why . . ."

In English: "Feminism is not the end of the world. Feminism is the basis of the modern age and our economy. Women were granted equal rights a long time ago, yet they still experience inequality. Women only get paid 82% of what men do. For your homeworks, I want you to read this story and respond to it with a feminist approach. . ."[/spoiler]

Critical thinking to a lib is asking open-ended questions and then leaving you to figure it out yourself, while implying that anything short of "Yea, I accept you!" is rude and socially unacceptable. My sociology, especially, class hates me
